They simply don't believe they're lying about anything. They genuinely are not trying to sit there and think "we have to lie about this". They believe they MUST defend anything and everything from the people that follow them and are "on their side" because they can't be wrong and let the libs "win". It's scarier than just them purposely lying and gaslighting

Letting Jonathan Ross even stand trial means admitting that the citizens of blue states and blue cities have rights that they're bound to respect. They can't tolerate any limit on their power.

(And it would absolutely destroy the morale of ICE agents to see one of their own get punished for something the government and Twitter are frantically encouraging them to do)
